Antique Verdure Aubusson Tapestry with Birds

About the Item

French, 18th century Verdure Aubusson tapestry handwoven in wool with silk highlights framed with a complete floral border. Two birds wade aside a winding stream in this scenic landscape with an ancient town in the rear, while the main focus of this tapestry are the large stylized leaves that fill the foreground. Complete Verdure tapestries decorated with lush trees and vegetation in a simple palette of beige, green, brown and blue grew immensely popular during the 17th century.
